The fabric is super soft and it was very easy to assemble. Unfortunately, it's extremely uncomfortable to sit on. I can't manage more than 10 or 15 minutes before it's actually painful. I have never had this problem with a chair before. The Wayfair return policy makes it so difficult to return that I'm just gonna be out $200+ for a terrible chair. Based on this experience, I would never, ever order furniture online from Wayfair again. Very disappointed and wish I could get my money back.
